This implies that another hostile clash will ensue in September, considered yet another grudge encounter, this time under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav and not granted to Rohit Sharma. The event, which is expected to be neat and demonstrated through T20 matches, is Asia Cup 2025.
India has been awarded the Asia Cup hosting rights, although the BCCI might pass them to the UAE, or Sri Lanka if it relinquishes.
Tournament to be played in September:
Hence, it means India and Pakistan will again collide in September. For the years prior, Pakistan very nicely thumped down Sri Lanka in the final after the Indian team had bowed out at the Super Four stage. It will repeat the same this time too in the lead-up to the 2026 T20 World Cup, yet again in T20 format-organized on the basis of each other-format according to Asian Cricket Council rules. The Asia Cup preceded the T20 World Cup in T20 format, winning by none other than Sri Lanka. The Asia Cup, played in ODIs, has now become a memory for India, just on the verge of the ODI World Cup in 2023. Therefore, with the 2026 World Cup being of T20 format in India, so too did they define Asia cup 2025 in the same format.

India vs Pakistan to be played on 3 occasion:
It’s all in place for another showdown between India and Pakistan. The venue is yet to be decided, though one can be certain that both teams will face each other this year. If both teams play to their abilities, they could meet three times: once in the group stage (a fairly frequent occurrence in recent ACC and ICC tournaments) again in the Super 4, and then finally, both of them meet in the finals, should they finish in the top two. Therefore, in the Asia Cup 2025, India and Pakistan could meet thrice.
